Bonnie_B said at 1:06 a.m. on Jan 7, 2007: dawei, yes, didn't you know, after you left we drove to Holyoke ;-) Just kidding, I took these a few weeks ago when I flew through town for half an hour on my way somewhere else.
Spilly, thank you !
Jeff, most of these are taken along Middle Canal, which I believe on maps is the... 2nd canal? At any rate, this area is just a few blocks from downtown... the Warsaw restaurant (which is for rent btw, in case you had aspirations to change careers ;-) is sort of kind of on the edge of downtown too.
I LOVE these buildings. And there's not much in Holyoke that isn't available. If anyone wants to go halfsies with me on a mill building, let me know.
